Nikhil Govind's book is an original, innovative and rigorous foray into the diverse and bewilderingly complex world of subcontinental fiction in the last hundred years...The scholarly relevance of the book cannot be emphasized enough. This is because it provides a novel entry point into the vast ambit of modern Indian literature without being too mechanical about it. The eloquent and erudite discussion of literary texts is ideal even for those readers who may not be familiar with all these writers and their literary backgrounds. The overarching Levinasian framework vis-à-vis self and subjectivity that undergirds Govind's chef-d'oeuvre is an immaculate example of how Indian texts can be analysed through Western theoretical paradigms without reading odd or awkward. Inlays of Subjectivity is thus a welcome addition to the hitherto existing parameters for evaluating the richness and heterogeneity of modern Indian literature.
